WikiLeaks, the anti-secrecy website, has released more than 1,000 emails from Hillary Clinton’s private email server pertaining to the Iraq War.

The website tweeted a link to 1,258 emails on Monday that Clinton sent during her time as secretary of state. According to the release, the emails were obtained from the US State Department after they issued a Freedom of Information Act request. However, it’s unclear if any of the information is classified.

1. So Assange says she'll be indicted because of these non-classified emails

they got from a FOIA request?

2. The article stipulates it is unclear if any of the emails are classified

3. Whoever wrote the article for this British paper isn't informed enough to realize

that the State Department doesn't release classified documents. So anything released via a FOIA request, as all these emails were, is by definition not classified.

4. I understand now. I had to read it three times to get the gist. Looks like you

are correct.

5. I saw this on Reddit, they say these are all emails people knew about a long time ago

Nothing new or even secretive about any of them. Just ones that have been floating around since when this started and that aren't a big deal

7. Yup. That's why Assange made the big announcement. It was a way to extend

his five minutes of attention to five days (including the days we've been waiting for a lot of nothing)

8. He's still in his Ecuadoran prison....!

I'll bet the diplomat who had to give up his office to that guy is very irritated!

6. Well, gosh, that's the important thing.

They're sure doing the important work, releasing released emails.



Yes, laserlike focus on important things. Next up -- Was Vince Foster killed because of what he knew about Benghazi?

11. And they'll raise money on it....

And some, including some here will hail this waste bag of egomaniac a hero.

10. not sure they didn't, I watched The Manchurian Candidate again last night

He could have been created

12. there are rumors..

that putin will release emails they scarfed from the state department through wikileaks.

Putin, really, REALLY, wants the cheetoh manchurian to win.

He has had his finger on every western election scale for years, and funded some very right wing seperatist loons (who were elected) in europe. He also funded brexit scampaigns.

People should ask themselves why putin wants trump s badly, and what that means for the country if trump winss.....

13. Governments must long

for the secure diplomatic pouch system set up, if I'm recalling
Euro history lectures correctly, and if they were true, by the Congress of
Vienna hosted by Prince Metternich that ended the Napoleonic Wars in 1815.
Seems to me the system of passports were included, and all agreed to
recognize these diplomatic privileges and immunity.

Hey, it's history light, been a long time!
